Chapter 3
Tania’s case was quite special. I had never handled similar cases before. It was a difficult one for me.
After all, I had to take the patient’s physical condition and the medication’s side effects into account.
I had tried my best, but only Tania or her baby got to live.
As the baby was too small, we could only choose to save Tania’s life.
The other doctors present all looked grim. They knew that given Tania’s wound, it was hardly possible for her to have a baby again.
But her vital signs allowed no hesitation.
I looked up at my assistant by my side.
“Go and let the patient’s family sign the critical condition notice. Tell him her current status and that the baby can’t be kept.”
Then, I was about to focus on stopping the bleeding and sewing up the wound when I felt a gut-wrenching pain in my
stomach.
A surge of tearing sensation just swept across my body, making me almost kneel.
I had to sit down and take a rest. The good thing was that the operation wasn’t in the critical moment yet. My col- league could cover me up.
I took a deep breath and finally felt better in a while.
Then, I pushed myself to finish the hardest part of the surgery despite feeling unwell.
More than two hours later, the operation was finally over.
Tania was under observation for a while. We didn’t wheel her out of the operating room until we made sure her vital signs were stable.
As soon as I got out of the door, my legs went limp and I nearly fell to the ground.
The other doctors hurriedly came and held me.
“Thank you so much. You’re pregnant but you still made it through the operation.”
“You’re such an amazing doctor. It’s our honor to learn from you.
“Rest assured. We’ll report this to the director. You should definitely be rewarded for this.”
I touched my belly and my lips twitched.

Chapter 3
It didn’t matter. I didn’t plan to keep the baby anyway!
I was escorted back to my break room.
Before I entered the room, I saw Antonio rush at me with his face fierce-looking and fists clenched.
He kicked me in the belly before others could react.
“It’s you, a useless doctor, who killed my kid.
“I knew the doctors here were unreliable. You can’t even handle that illness.”
On the corridor, as he shouted, people immediately dashed forward.

Antonio pointed at me and snapped, “My wife was well before entering the operating room, but now that she came out, the baby is gone.
“The doctor hates me because I didn’t give her enough money. I offered 10,000 dollars, but she thought it was too lit- tle and threw it away!
“Please help me out here. We gotta have this murderer punished!”
Hit by Antonio, I felt as if being thunderstruck and slumped on the ground, trembling all over.
The other doctors came to their senses and hastily stopped him.
But Antonio acted like a starving beast. After pushing the doctors away, he dragged me to the corner of the wall.
“Tell me, why did you give up my baby? I finally had a baby, but you just killed it!
“This hospital should be shut down. You can’t even save a kid!
“If I knew you were so useless, I should have gone to another hospital!”
He vented his anger hysterically.
And I had been unconscious as he dragged me away.
Antonio was still relentless.
He took out his phone and wanted to pull the mask off my face.
“I’ll expose you online so that everyone can see your face.”
My mask was pulled off by him and he was still babbling.
“Hmph, don’t be shy. Show everybody your face!”
He grabbed my hair and pointed the camera at my face.
The moment he saw me clearly, he was completely dumbfounded. He took a few steps back in disbelief.
“Why is it you? Why are you here?”
